Why Keeping Candidate Data Updated is Critical
In recruitment, outdated candidate data can lead to:
Wasted outreach to inactive or unavailable candidates.
Slower hiring processes and missed opportunities.
Poor client satisfaction due to delayed placements.
Maintaining up-to-date data ensures your team works smarter, not harder. But how can you achieve this without spending hours on manual updates?
